Radio Ga Ga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Radio Ga Ga" is a song performed and recorded by the band Queen, written by their drummer Roger Taylor. Taylor originally conceived it as "Radio Ca-Ca" (apparently from something his toddler son once said), a slam against radio for the decrease in variety of programming and the type of music being played. The song was a commentary of the invention of television overtaking radio's popularity, and how one would listen to radio for their favorite comedy, drama, sci-fi programs etc… as well as the advent of the music video and MTV. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Radio_Ga-Ga   (555 words)

The Daily Summit - Radio ga-ga. Radio ga-ga. Talk on WSIS tends to focus on the benefits of the internet, but some feel that the importance of radio - which remains a vital source of communication and information - is being overshadowed. In the UK for example, radio audiences are reaching a record high level with almost 44 million adult listeners a week which, according to a Rajar spokesman, means that around 90% of the British population tune into some form of radio programme each week.

Commentary - Preemptive War Criminals Radio Ga Ga Clear Channel Worldwide Inc., the nation’s largest owner of radio stations (over 1200 stations in all 50 states and DC), sponsored the numerous "patriotic rallies" which were held in various cities around the country.

LankaBuzz :: Radio Ga Ga :: September :: 2005 Maybe the radio channel wants them to put on the accent, but the thing is they don’t need to, because what they talk about is interesting to their listeners, they don’t need the accent. Our radio channels play some great music, the DJ’s put on some great music, one after the other and these days if you change over to any channel you get good music.

ideasfactory - Radio Ga-ga My lengthy, rather hit-and-miss entry into radio is by no means typical, due to the fact that there is no one single formulaic format for breaking into the industry. I was granted an audience with the editor of Radio Four's Sunday Programme, and managed, with a lot of help, to compile two features for the programme with next to no experience. She bounded up to me after the recording, with a curious mixture of puppyish enthusiasm and steely determination, exclaiming that the recording had been fantastic, and that THIS was what she wanted to do for a living. www.ideasfactory.com /music_sound/features/mus_feature12.htm   (1157 words)

Radio Ga Ga by Queen Songfacts As a result, it went from a song condemning radio ("Ca-Ca") to praising it ("Ga Ga"). The second verse of the song relates to the golden age of radio, when radio was not just a medium for music and talk shows; but when we listened to shows featuring famous comedians, dramas, etc. The part about wars of worlds invaded by Mars relates to "War of the Worlds" by H. Wells. Orson Wells read this story on the radio in the 1930s, and when he did so, it caused panic throughout the U.S., showing that at the time, radio was a very powerful medium. www.songfacts.com /detail.php?id=1384   (1101 words)

Radio Ga Ga Radio Ga Ga is the biggest Queen single ever written by Roger, but people like to brush it off. Radio Ga Ga on its own is a great song. Maybe they are traveling to the second half of the video, where they finish up the song by standing in front of a crowd, wearing ugly futuristic (eighties-style) outfits while leading the crowd in the fists-in-the-air/clap-clap combo that is easily the most memorable part of the video. www.rocksnobs.com /2003_04_20_radiogaga.html   (768 words)

Radio Ga Ga: An Introduction to HD Radio Remember the song Radio Ga Ga by Queen? One reason this occurred was because "earthing" the transmitter antenna resulted in the radio signals using the ground as a waveguide, meaning the signals followed the earth's plane, and thus spread out in only two dimensions, unlike a free-space transmission like light, which dispersed in three dimensions. Digital radio has been used for several years in Canada, Israel and parts of Europe and is quite popular. www.devhardware.com /index.php?option=content&task=view&id=935   (617 words)

Solvent - Radio Ga Ga It's hard to make out what Amm is trying to say in "Radio Goo Goo" (which completes the Queen reference), but it gestures an elegant conclusion to the first EP with its cascading squarewaves, soft strings and pulsating heartbeat. The title actually refers to the year-old Solvent track "My Radio", one of the many highlights off Ghostly International Records' excellent neo electro smorgasbord "Tangent Noveau." On that compilation, Solvent shocked his loyal listeners by investing in something that he had previously not attempted on his three previous studio albums: vocals. It was only fitting that he should mark this transitional phase with a love song to his radio, yearning for the days when his heroes in Yaz, OMD, and the Human League could be heard with regularity across the airwaves. www.ghostly.com /1.0/ghostly/gi22-23.shtml   (1035 words)

Satellite radio ga-ga - Feb. 3, 2004 And Watts said that because satellite radio is still in its infancy, the stocks should remain a "trader's delight" for the foreseeable future. Unless the radio companies are able to launch a wide array of services, it's highly unlikely they will ever be able to get as much money out of its subscriber base as EchoStar. Sure, the radio companies are younger and have higher growth prospects so you'd expect some sort of premium. money.cnn.com /2004/02/03/technology/techinvestor/lamonica   (904 words)

Infinite Monkeys: Radio ga-ga. Still, at least they aren't playing radio 1 with it's playlist that sounds like the top 40 on random-play, with no sylistic continuity between tracks which the DJ's often sound embarrassed to be playing. Now, either they should have some 'neutral' radio station (such as Heart / Capital / Magic/ Jazz FM) which is mere wallpaper, or they should not have anything at all. Now, while I can appreciate that different people have different tastes in music (or "music" in the case of Kiss), some radio stations are surely more anti-social than others. www.20six.co.uk /weblogEntry/19vjb201afevu.htm   (354 words)
